Squirrel Removal in Savannah, GA
Squirrels are the most frequent attic invader in Savannah. With mature trees throughout Coastal Georgia neighborhoods, squirrels have easy access to rooftops, and once they find a gap, they chew their way in.
Hearing scurrying, scratching or chewing during the day is a common sign. Squirrels are active during daylight hours, which sets them apart from raccoons or rodents.

How we remove it
Squirrel removal often involves one-way doors or trapping, depending on the situation. The key is to let the squirrels leave and then seal the entry points, because squirrels will chew their way back in if the opening is not properly repaired.
Trimming branches that provide roof access can also help reduce the chance of re-entry after exclusion work is done.
How we seal the entry points
Squirrels are excellent climbers and chewers. In Savannah neighborhoods with mature trees, branches overhanging the roof give squirrels easy access. Once on the roof, they can chew through wood, plastic and even thin metal.
Sealing entry points means repairing chewed soffits and fascia, securing vents and closing gaps at roof intersections. Trimming back overhanging branches is one of the most effective long-term steps.
